Analysis

This 9mm pistol offers a compelling package for shooters seeking a classic design with modern performance. Its accuracy is noteworthy, delivering tight groupings at typical defensive ranges, thanks to a well-balanced frame and crisp sight picture. The ergonomics are a strong point, with a grip that fits most hand sizes comfortably, promoting confident handling during extended sessions. Reliability is consistent, cycling a variety of ammunition without frequent malfunctions under standard conditions. The trigger pull is smooth and predictable, averaging around 5 pounds, which aids in precision shooting. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most users, though follow-up shots may require slight adjustment for newer shooters. On the downside, maintenance can be somewhat involved, requiring attention to detail for proper care. Parts availability may pose challenges, potentially delaying repairs. Additionally, some users might find the weight less ideal for concealed carry.
